Plot

The series centers around Dan Vasser, a normal man living in San Francisco who, for an unknown reason, begins jumping backwards in time. He soon learns that each series of jumps follows the life of a person whose destiny he seems meant to change. Dan's jumping affects his family life with his wife and son, his job as a reporter, and instills suspicion in his brother, a police detective. While in the past, Dan reconnects with his ex-fiancée, whom he believed was killed in a plane crash, but is actually a traveler like him. This is a list of episodes for the NBC series Journeyman. ...

Fictional cosmology

Dan's "shifts" through time occur seemingly at random, the only indication he has to an oncoming jump is a feeling in his head which varies from right before he jumps to several seconds of warning. Dan appears to have no control over the shifts. The first jump is typically several decades into the past; through a series of jumps, he jumps nearer to the present, usually years at a time.

The jumps manifest themselves with a small blue flash and a ripple as Dan appears to vanish from the present, and appear instantly in the past. He is missing from the present for a period of time unrelated to the period he spends in the past. His disappearances and reappearances are rarely witnessed by anyone else; it is unclear if this is a factor in his jumps, or merely coincidence. Dan does not arrive in the same location he departed, but instead arrives near the person who he is supposed to help. His jumps are typically restricted to the area he leaves from, usually keeping him in the San Francisco area.

Dan's journeys appear to each have an innate purpose, which is not always apparent to him, but involves positively changing the destiny of a certain person. Likewise, fate seems to conspire against him if he tries to alter other events beyond his current charge. Alterations Dan makes to the timeline affect the present and the memories of everyone in it. His own memories, however, are unaltered, and he recalls events as they originally occurred before his interference. Alternative history or alternate history can be: A History told from an alternative viewpoint, rather than from the view of imperialist, conqueror, or explorer. ...

Dan is not alone in his ability. His ex-fiancée Livia, thought to have been killed in a plane crash, actually travelled back to her "home time" of 1948, from where she jumps forwards in time. Dan meets Livia on his jumps into the past, as she jumps into her future to offer her experience and assistance with Dan's missions.

Cast and characters

• Kevin McKidd as Dan Vasser, a reporter for the San Francisco Register, a San Francisco newspaper. Dan is the main protagonist of the series, who discovered that he can shift through time, though without any control over it. He has been married to his wife, Katie, for 7 years, and they have a son, Zack. He was previously engaged to Livia Beale before her disappearance in a plane crash. Dan is a recovered gambling addict.

• Gretchen Egolf as Katie Vasser, Dan's wife and mother of their son Zack. Until recently, she was the only one in the present who knows about her husband's time-traveling. Katie was the long-time girlfriend of Dan's brother Jack. Since their break-up nine years ago, the two have remained somewhat distant; partly because Katie ended up getting pregnant by Dan and they married soon after. Before marrying Dan, Katie was a television reporter. In response to cutbacks at the Register, and Dan's traveling, Katie returns to television to ensure a stable income for the family.

• Reed Diamond as Jack Vasser, Dan's brother. Jack, a police detective, is dating Dr. Theresa Sanchez (Lisa Sheridan), but also still has feelings for Katie. Dan tells Jack about his time traveling in the pilot, but Jack does not believe him. He subsequently forms a number of misconceptions about Dan's disappearances and apparent irresponsibility, including the suspicion that Dan has resumed gambling. He secretly uses his police resources to investigate Dan's life. Livia Beale meets with him and finally convinces Jack that Dan is indeed time traveling against his will.

• Charles Wyson as Zack Vasser, Dan's son. He is the only one to have seen Dan disappear into the past, and believes his father has "magic" powers.

• Brian Howe as Hugh Skillen, editor-in-chief of the San Francisco Register and Dan's boss and friend.

• Moon Bloodgood as Livia Beale, Dan's ex-fiancée who was presumed dead after a plane crash nearly ten years before the start of the series. It is revealed that she is actually a traveler from 1948 who jumps into the future. After not being able to jump home, she was stuck in Dan's present and adapted to life there, where she began a legal career and fell in love with Dan, only to finally jump back home while on the plane. It has been suggested that Dan was the target of her extended jump and her mission was to get Dan and Katie together (which happened because of her supposed death). She now jumps to the same times that Dan visits and offers him advice and assistance in his missions.
